Jobes Barn

A purpose‑built equestrian retail barn - cedar‑clad, light‑filled, and engineered for the future of Classic Dressage.

Project Information

Warwickshire

Hayward Smart Architects

From Green Field to Flagship Store

Set within rolling Warwickshire countryside near Stratford‑upon‑Avon, Jobes Barn began as little more than an empty plot at an established equestrian centre. Clarke Construction Group took the project from first excavation to fully finished destination store, delivering a striking two‑storey building for Classic Dressage.

A steel frame anchors the structure, wrapped in blockwork and warm cedar cladding. Vast glazed gables, skylights, and full‑height windows flood the retail floor with natural light, creating an inviting showcase for saddlery, apparel, and tack.

Project Statement

Built for premium equestrian retail — where craftsmanship, efficiency, and architectural flair ride side by side.

Designed for Function and Flow

Inside, polished concrete floors support heavy stock loads while delivering a modern aesthetic. Stud‑framed walls define showrooms, fitting areas, and office space; mezzanine storage maximises vertical height. High‑performance insulation, under‑roof skylights, and LED lighting ensure year‑round comfort and energy efficiency.

The build integrates new electrics, plumbing, and climate control, alongside a regulation sewage treatment plant and oil‑storage facility. An onsite EV charger underscores the client’s commitment to sustainable convenience for staff and visiting riders alike.

Clarke Construction delivered exactly what we envisioned - a bright, welcoming store that reflects the quality of our brand. The team handled every detail with professionalism and care. The result is a barn we’re proud to call the home of Classic Dressage.
